WE are all agreed on the necessity of having our streets put in some sort of de- cent condition for public traffic. Our own case and comfort suggest this necessity our character before the stranger-visitors as a city of growing extent and population, of important industries, and in this age of civilization, demands a change. The ques- ions going on in respect of the relative merits of Belgian pavements and trap rock Macadam, but on the threshold of the inquiry lies the important question: Where is the money to come from for ei- ther? Mrs Glarss' receipt for cooking a hare, ''First catch your hare''-is strongly pertinent. To make your streets, first se- cure the cash costs, and then it will be easy to determine according to means at dispos- al, what material should be used. Our contemporary, the Republican" has by private inquiry elicited opinion from Street Commissioners in Hartford, Bridge port and Springfield of the practical ex- periences of those cities in street pave ments; and the weight of their opin- ions appears to be, that in the absence of the more enduring Block, the Macadam concrete has been found economic and equal to most requirements. However catch your cash; and the consensus of cit izens in public meeting assembled, may be necessary to arm City Councils with au- thority.
 CHRISTMAS DAY comes on Sunday this year. Monday is thereby made alegal hol- | iday; and in many cities in the Old World and the New there is agitation for an ad- ditional day of rest, = either on Saturday, Christmas Eve; or Tuesday, St Johns Day. Shop assistants, workers in factories, professional men and officials in public institutions and departments favor the idea and make effort for it's accom- plishment. But alas! There is one inter est beyond the pale of these chances of en- joyment The demands on a daily jour nal are inexorable Editors must minister to the public craving for news, even to the extent of laboring to chronicle the joys in which they do not partlc1pate; reporters are compelled to be almost ubiquitous in their rounds of festival news seeking; and the nimble fingered type settlers have to | compose themselves to the condition of contentment at work while others play. There is no holiday for the press this year, save the glorious Sabbath. In Sunshine or in gloom it is all the same for the journal ist. There is no sleigh-riding when the snow comes and no babbling streams and green swards in the Summer time. All is dull round of duty No not dull. The sense of the duty well performed is de- light of itself, all the more enjoyable and enjoyed when public approval is it's portion.

Ne,.,r Saw One Of His children.

A genuine Yankee having bored new
conner with every conceivable question
relative to his object in visiting the gold
country, his hopes, his means and his
prospects, at length asked him if he had a
family. eyes, sir; have wife and six
children, and never saw one Of them. "
After this reply the two sat few min
utes in silence, then the inquisitive man
began again-"Was you ever blind, STRIP
mo, sir" ibid you marry a widow,
sirl" ''No sir" Another interval OF
silence. ''Did 1 understand you to say,
sir, that you had wife and six children
living in New York, and had never seen
one of themp' "Yes, sir, 50 stated it."
Another and long pause. Then the Yam
kee recommended: Chow can it be, sir
that you never saw one Of themF
why" was the reply, ''one Of them was
born after left"

ideas Of a Professor of Music.

The ideal church music is that where so
10 and congregational singing are COM
bined, but if there is choice between the
two, prefer the former. In a solo quar-
tet there may not be the volume of sound
and that peculiar fullnes which chorus,
even Of unframed voices, produces, but
at the same time the results are more har-
monious than congregational singing.
Four trained voices can make as much
sound as sixteen unframed voices, and be
more pleasant to hear. Without choir
to lead, congregational singing lacks
great deal of motive that church music
should have in order to be impressive;
with a trained quartet, the congregation
can be brought to harmonious methods,
which they naturally catch from those
who lead

The Enemy of Woman,

A review Of a peculiarly ferociOus COM
pexion is said to be on the point of APP
pearing in Vienna. It's title, Der Frauen-
Jcind (Anglice, "The Enemy of Woman'D
indicates the line it purposes taking up.
The editor, one Herr Grose, has set before
himself the object of emancipating man
from his subsection to that doll, woman,
who idiots ideaiize and fools bow down
before as to divinity" Herr Crosse is
good enough, however, to notify that there
are exceptions to this denunciation, and
generally exempts whole classes of the
sex from the scope of his review. His
venture seems to be made in good earnest,
and is likely to pay its way, for Of course
every Viennese lady will be only too anx-
ious to hand in her subscription.

CANNED SOUPS.
Millions of Gallons Put Up Annually in
the United States.

Millions of Gallons Put Up Annually in
the United States.
"There are only two or three houses in
the country that make a speciality of can
ned soups" said a manufacturer of the
article to a representative of the New
York Commercial. "These soups are known
all over the world. They are prepared in
the most careful manner. The cans are
Dramatically sealed, and the soups are
warranted not to spoil IN the torrid zone
or the Arctic circle. All that is necessary
is to open the can and place the soup on
the fire. 1t does not need to be cooked,
merely heated through 1t needs no
seasoning. The required condiments are
put in when the soup is made in the great
caldrons Of the mandatory. Your soup
sufficiently heated is removed from the
fire, placed in the tureen-and there you
are!n
"What quantity of these soups is sold
annuallyl" asked the reporter.
'What quantityl 1t is almost beyond
computation. Enough to float the Great
Eastern; to fill the Erie canal; to float
half dozen small cities. Last year this
house alone made more than 100000 gal.
Ions of it, The total soup production Of
the country-I mean canned soups, OF
course-runs up into the tens Of millions.
What kinds Of soups are made in this
form!" he continued, repeating another
question by the reporter EVERY soup
known to modern or ancient culinary art"
Then the manufacturer ratified off long
list of soups so rapid y, and containing so
many names pronounceable only by canned
goods factory managers and Pausian
chefs, that but few Of the more
familiar Of them could be remembered.
These included tomato, mock turtle, OK
tail, julienne, pea, beef, chicken, macaroni,
vermicelh, consomme, okra or gumbo,
mulligatawney, green turtle and terrapin.
"Ihe soups are put in quart cans. They
cost the consumer about 30 cents quart
for the ordinary soups, or $3.50 dozen
cans, and from that to 20 cents quart, OF
S a dozen, for the more delicate, such as
terrapm, for instance Are these soups
made of the best materlalsl Indeed they
are. All the canned soups are made from
exactly what their names imply. Sour
labeled tomato is made from tomatoes
not from red brick dust; beef soup from
genuine beef, terrapin from the real art
Gle, and as much care and cleanliness and
regard for the proper mixture and cook
ing of these soups are observed as in any
kitchen, private or public"

PRINCESS Lnmisa of Lorna.

Princess Louise gave an undoubted i'm
petus to fine art in Canada when she was
there. She got to like the clear, cold
climate, the effects of snow and frost on
lake and forest, and the fast-rushing and
full flowing rivers; but the accident she
met with when riding in covered sledge,
by injuring her health, spoiled her capac-
ity for enjoyment, and obliged her to re-
turn to Europe to seek at European water
ing places a cure for nerves that were
permanently affected. She quickly got to
feel that the Canadians were of indie
pendent character and in the democratic
current of the age, and with great affabil-
ity adapted herself to their temper.

The Poor Llttle Ones.

We often see children with red eruptions

The writers of the above letter give these
facts to the public simply to JUSTIFY The
claims that they hare made that ''if the kid

ton by the use of Warmers safe cure,
which hundreds Of thousands have proved
TO be a specific, when all other remedies
failed, and that has received the endorse
ment Of the highest medical talent in Eu-
rope, Australasia and America, many
life would be prolonged and the happiness
Of the people preserved. 1t is successful
with so many different diseases because 1t
and it alORe can remove the uric acid from

Our readers are familiar with the prep

peared in our columns.
We believe 1t to be one OF the best, il not
the best ever manufactured. We know
the prOprietors are men of character and

We are certain they have awakened a
widespread interest in the public mind
concerning the importance Of the kidneys.
We believe with them that they are the
key to health, and that for their restora-
ton from disease and maintenance in
health, there is nothing equal to this great
remedy.
The proprietors say they "do not glory
in this universal prevalence of disease,
but having started out with the purpose of
spreading the merits of Warmers safe cure

INJUSTICE CORRECTED.
Convincing Notification of widecast Pub
lie Statements.


To Our Readers
In common with many publishers and
editors, we have been accustomed to look
upon certain statements which we have
seen in our columns as merely adroit adj
vertising.
Consequently we feel justified in taking
the liberty of printing few points from
private letter recently received from one
of our largest patrons, as a sort of confess
sion of faith to our readers. We quote:
1--WE have convinced ourselves that by
telling what we know to be true, we have
produced at last permanent conUtction in
the public mind. Seven years ago we
stated what the national disease of this
country was, and that 1T was rapidly in
credSiHg. Three years ago we stated that a
marked check had been given it.
THE statistics of one of the largest life
insurance companies of this country shows
that in 1888 and 1884, the mortality from
kidney disorders did not increase over the
previous years: other companies stated the
same thing. 1t is not presumptuous Tor US
TO claim credit for checking these ravages.
"Seven years ago we stated that the con-
dition of the kidneys was the key to the
condition of health: within the past five
years all careful life insurance companies
nave COlCeuOu Ju6 JIuIu VI llllS SldlCluCuUi
for, whereas, ten years ago, chemical anal
ysis to determine the condition of the kid
neys was not required, to-day millions Of
dollars dt risks are refused, because chemical
examination discovers WflSuSpected diseases
of the kidneys.
"Seven years ago we stated that the raw
ages of Brights Disease were insignificant
compared with other unsupported disorders
of the kidneys of many misleading Dames;
that nnety-three per cent. of human all
ments are attributable TO deranged kid
neys, which fills the blood with uric acid,
or kidney poison, which causes these many
| fatal diseases.
1.-THE uric acid, or kidney poison, is the
real cause of the majority of cases of paral-
ysis, apopleXy, heart disease, commissions,
| pneumonia, consumption, and insanity;
| over half the victimsof consumption are
I first the victims of diseased kidneys.
"When the recent death of an honored
! ex-oficial of the United States was an
| nounced, his physician said that although
/ he was suffering from Bright's Disease,
| that was not the cause Of death. He was not
J frank enough to admit that the apopleXy
which overlook him in his bed was the
! fatal effect of the kidney poison in the
! blood, which had eaten away the substance
! of the arteries and brain; nor was Logan's
! physician honest enough TO state that his
! fatal rheumatism was caused by kidney
acid in the blood.
''If the doctors would state in official re-
/ ports the original cause of death, the peo-
pie of this country would be alarmed, yea,
| nearly panic stricken, at the fearful mortali-
| ty from kidney disorders"
